I'm not actually sure how many plug-in hybrids go for an all-electric power train, versus a dual power train.

I know the Chevy Volt had an all-electric power train, and the ICE is purely a generator that dumps power into the electrical system, and the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid has a dual power train, but I wasn't able to find a concise list of which hybrids have taken what strategy.
>(being paid for by the US, after Musk initially provided free service early in the war after a Ukrainian request

1 Musk never provided free service for Ukraine. All dishes have subscription. What Musk alluded to was "free upgrade" while demanding Ukrainians start paying for Mobile Priority plans.

2 "As of October 2022 there were 18k Starlink terminals in Ukraine. At the time State Department (USAID) paid for ~2K units, Poland paid for >12K units – over half of all terminals came from one relatively poor EU country.

December 2022 number rose to 22K. Apparently as of June 2023 there are >40K terminals in use, with USAID share rising to at least ~5K."

US paid for 1/8 of all terminals up to June 2023. I stopped tracking numbers last year.

>what about dishes that get captured by Russia?

Havent heard a single case of this happening.

>As noted, what about all the privately paid-for dishes?

More appropriately slowly sunsetting it because the alternate flavour is seeing growth and the FreeBSD flavour is becoming non-viable.

> The data is showing us that CORE will become non-viable at some point in the future. Without divulging too much, I can say that SCALE is seeing roughly a 5x growth rate compared to CORE and we don't see any reason for that trend to reverse.

CORE (aka FreeBSD) will still get maintenance releases for the foreseeable future. If you are really bothered about it, crowd fund a few developers to continue the project, I'm sure they won't mind. Otherwise, it seems like SCALE or death for them.

Ah, that makes more sense. I was misinterpreting corporate Spyware and corporate espionage. I imagine providing additional info to employers is something MS would offer as a value add to organizations using this, but that's sort of expected with all organization based tooling in my eyes.

Dont use your personal account for work, and don't assume any service you use for work provided by work isn't giving data on you to you employer, and if at all possible try to work for a company that cares what you deliver and not how you do it (meaning they aren't micromanage, not that they want you to skirt laws.. ). Some of those are obviously easier than others to control.
Nice! Thanks for the tip on a thing I love I didn't know existed!
The smaller keyboards are very popular for gaming because they are more ergonomic and free up more room on the desk.

However, if someone is in the market for a gaming keyboard right now, I would only recommend Wooting as at this point in time there is no HE keyboard with latency has low as Wooting.

My first EV was a Volt which had only ~30 miles of EV range before it switched to gas. I bought it because I was EV curious but worried about range and I got a crazy cheap lease from GM. I drove it for three years and did a few short road trips. When I returned it, my total driving stats: 99% on electrons.
Maybe put another way, if I can get an LLM/AI to build exactly the product that I need, is a company that serves many customers simultaneously but probably worse still necessary?

I think it'll be hard enough to reason about what you really want that most customers won't care enough to roll their own. And personally, I'd happily pay someone to keep the product maintained. A product is usually not one and done.

Most tree planting efforts fail, as they ignore a lot of implementation/maintenance details and result in lots of dead trees.

Mass tree planting is like doing a massive, massive migration. You can't just stick seedlings in the ground arbitrarily and expect a stand of trees to sustain itself 'cause "nature"... the successful processes like the Miyawaki method require planning, community investment, sustained work for ~5 years, etc.

They did say that about airplanes, but via pretty strict regulation, and consequently high costs we've kept the average idiot away from airplanes so they can't turn them in to cruise missiles.

With flying cars the only way they can be safe for the masses on the ground is to take away every bit of freedom from doing anything with them at all, and putting such strict liability on them that most people wouldn't want to touch them anyway.

I try to keep up with the latest science on climate change. From what I understand we're currently on course for ~ 3.4C of warming, no where near 1.5.

It's not all doom and gloom. China's 'dumping' of cheap solar and evs are actually a hugely good thing for the world. We're not on as dire a path as we once thought but 3+C of warming is still bad enough that I ultimately think we'll resort to geoengineering to stop it. No matter how dangerous geoengineering is, it's cheaper than completely revamping our economic system, and for whatever reason we seem to care far, far more about the 'cost' of a solution over it's risk.

A 1000psi fire extinguisher uses ~5mm thick steel even for that relatively small diameter cylinder. A typical extinguisher is ~200ish psi with a wall probably ~1mm thick.

This highlights that high pressure and "thin steel foil" do not go well together and don't scale in your favor. Pressure makes any failure considerably more dangerous.
Sorry, sibling responses still aren’t quite answering this correctly.

Number is for countable distinct things, and amount is for a quantity of a single thing. (Often a substance)

So a number of sticks, a number of socks, a number of people. A number of eggs.

An amount of flour, sugar, water, money, time.

A number of minutes equals an amount of time.

This is an interesting proposition, converting text to motion but what will happen with other agents in the mix? For example, simulating a crowd moving between each other?

So far from the benchmarks comparing with other methods, this seems to be quite natural, if this can be extrapolated into game development, it would remove so much work.
Well, yeah, it's really hard to send money to carbon capture when it's hard for 99.99% of voters to even begin to quantify the value of a ton of carbon captured.

I'm all for carbon capture as a technology, but if a company was to take $100 from me as a service for capturing my carbon, I literally have no way of knowing what I am even getting for my money. And it sounds like the same is true even at a utility/national level.

Go back to economics 101. Rational consumers purchase at the margin. Carbon capture is still only an irrational action.

If we want to have any progress on global warming, CRD or not, we really need to start price setting the value of carbon.
I'm more concerned about the microplastics in my blood, to be honest.
Couldn't Korea have benefited from not being split up? Not being invaded by Japan?
Wouldn't the North be in a better place if it hadn't been taken over by the Soviets? And bombed by the US to smithereens?

The first ruler of South Korea after the war, Syngman Rhee, was not known for his respect of democratic processes, and had the approval of the US. He maintained an authoritarian regime and didn't contribute much to the country's economic growth.

South Korea's economic success happened in spite of American imperialism, not because of it.

Imperialism as an ideology is evil, no matter who is the oppressor.
This is actually what sucks about interviewing. My work is mostly working with managers/executives to deliver them a solution, I provide tremendous value to the business. I am full stack dev and can write a complete solution with tests, CI/CD pipelines and setup infrastructure.

I once interviewed and was asked what is the difference between thread and a task. I provided a 'dumb' correct answer because I did not remember the text book definition, as I have been out of school for several years. The interviewer ignored everything I've said and told me "Actually, it's <insert textbook defintion>".

It almost seems that computer science teaches you too much of the theory and not enough of "get shit done".

I really enjoyed computer science and graduated with honors, but writing business code is kind of meh and boring. I know people who dropped out of CS due to having a hard time with algorithms and more advanced courses. I feel like they should have stayed and would do fine doing boring work. However, nobody tells you this, there seems to be a lot of gatekeeping in tech.
Apple is playing consumer advocate here by refusing to support device attestation keys on consumer hardware. With the large market share of the iPhone that's a key wedge that should keep things relatively open on the consumer side, presuming Apple sticks to their ideals here. The biggest advocates for device attestation are doing so for corporate "enterprise environments" and that will likely be a dividing line that corporate networks may require device attestation and consumer devices and applications won't/can't.
Market rates reached pretty unsustainable levels, so it's hard to justify complaining when competition (usually not arbitrage by resellers) brings them down. I would love to see a higher bar for quality, but I think that has to start with end users saying no.

Of course I'm not. I never said otherwise. That's just ridiculous. No human is perfectly rational.

Well, I try very hard to be as rational as I can be, and I think I'm getting better at it with practice. But I'm still not perfect, and I never will be.

> you do not have a deep understanding of the subtle and complex differences between belief and knowledge

Those are two topics that I have not yet addressed, so you cannot possibly have any basis for assessing my understanding or lack thereof. The fact that you think you have such a basis indicates that you are, at the very least, making some unwarranted assumptions.

(But I would wager (if we could find a way to adjudicate it) that my understanding of belief and knowledge is a lot deeper than you think.)

> Do you believe that I may be on to something, at least possibly?

No. I think that you once again have failed to do your homework. If you will recall, I smacked you down for that once before.

You see a lot of examples of things that seem absurd when applied to non-technical topics, but as soon as you apply them to computers all skepticism goes out the window. If I told you I have a person who speaks perfect English but frequently lies and outright makes things up, you'd say that's a politician and not to be trusted. But if I say I have a computer with those same properties, suddenly it's the most amazing thing in the world, and we should implicitly trust it to make our decisions and educate our children.

I agree with this in principle, but only insofar as it applies to western countries. Emissions from the developing world will continue to increase (rightfully so, given we had such massive head start) and they will have little incentive to curtail emissions, even when climate-related disasters become more frequent. The only unilateral solution seems to be a technological one, therefore necessitating carbon capture.

I worry for the next generation. I loved math until college. I was in a hurry to get gen-ed and general engineering classes out of the way so I signed up for an accelerated math class that was one of if not the very first pilot program to teach calculus with Mathematica. It also collapsed three semesters into two.

I learned first hand why teachers want you to master the fundamentals before reaching for a calculator. Most of the time if I couldn't figure out how to solve the problem, I would reverse engineer the steps from the solution. But I wasn't really learning how to think about the problems for myself.

I did abysmally on every single test. I got a B- in the class only because the homework was weighted ridiculously high and I had a >95% on that portion of my grade.

How to not recreate that failure mode will probably be this generation's big crisis.
> Good luck debugging code you aren't skilled enough to write

I mean, at the end of the day I am not a coder, therefore any code I debug I'm probably not good enough to write, yet I've found numerous bugs in both open source and proprietary code with suggestions on how to fix it.
To me that story reads like thinly veiled political commentary. Peasants and feudal lords/nobility/local government working towards a common goal (e.g. paying taxes to fund defense against bandits, building grain stores for times of famine, etc). A person in power misappropriates the funds for personal gain, and any peasant who complains loses their head.

Telling a story about a mouse and a cat allowed you to keep your head, and the situation was probably common enough for the fable to become widely known before it was picked up by the Bothers Grimm.

It's not that different from Gulliver's Travels complaining about pointless religious wars under the guise of talking about far-away islands of tiny humans, or Star Trek criticizing the Vietnam War under the guise of talking about a primitive planet light-years away centuries in the future.
As frustrating as it is, even great products don't sell themselves.

I'm not sure you can say that nationalism isn't an economic concern. If the jobs went overseas, then nationalism (putting your own country first), or at least economic nationalism, makes perfect sense as a response.
